The countdown to...

...RED NOSE DAY continues.
With just over a month to go the donations for our RED themed tombola have started to trickle in. Going on past experience things will be a little slow until nearer the time but we like to give folk plenty of time so that we don't get comments like "Oh, if only I'd known sooner..."

This morning I took this photo of the two "Hugs" that I had completed and already adorning their mugs...
By this afternoon they were suitably packaged for the event.
I thought I would also take this opportunity to show you the 'Nose' collection that lives on my desk.
As you can see, I have quite a variety, all from past years (I'm sure if I was to dig around in the back of some cupboards at home I would probably find some even older versions LOL). There are 3 versions this year and one of each now lives with their fellow Noses on my desk but I think I like the Pirate the best...he's the chappy in the main pic at the start of this post.

Our manager has agreed to dress in red during the week and has even promised to get a red wig.

The area where the tombola will be held is already decorated with bunting and some of the posters that we downloaded from the RND site and I sent out a general email to everyone in the building inviting folk to donate and join us in doing Something Funny for Money. We are moving in the right direction............................

Wow, your red noses are awesome! Ours are so boring, just a red circle with no character. You've done a great job for the tombola. Hope you have fun!
